Yeah I have to agree with you, that listing is kind of fishy. :unsure: Only things I can figure is one, it's a retail authentic from 1993-1994, and two, the seller has hyped the auction up because it's a "Gretzky" jersey. I'm no hockey historian, so off the top of my head I don't even know if Wayne had a brother who played for TB. Anyone else have some insight? This jersey can't secretly be a gamer, can it? :blink:

Brent did: (Brent Gretzky 13 1 3 4 2 1993-1995 2 C)

It's just a pro authentic made up, doubt it's a gamer and still, who'd pay that much for him?

:P

Do you actually know where you could have it customized accurately? I got $250 for my Hamrlik a few years back, mainly because it was customized properly -

Is that really the way the numbers were back then for the bolts (particularly the four)? Looks off.

Your pic is from 94-95.

They were different in 92-93-94 -

One thing to note, though; the 9s are angled on the white jersey pics (same as the one he sold), but they aren't angled here -

92-93 had non-italicized numbers, 93-94 had italicized numbers.

Italicized numbers with drop shadows = hockey jersey perfection
